Barron Still Struggling? Dobes Strong Game, Engstrom Could Make Habs | First Pre-season Loss

Montreal Canadiens lose 2-1 to Toronto Maple Leafs in pre-season.
How concerning is Justin Barron right now and how stiff is the competition for him at training camp?
Yakuk Dobes strong performance, Adam Engstrom could make Habs.

  7. We cannot redo the past but to me it's a pity we could not let Justin keep growing his game in the AHL for 2 full unbothered years when he came in from Colorado. In retrospect, he needed such a time to grow his game on so many key little aspects.
    Now he's trying to do too much, doesn't seem confident enough in his strengths and all those litte shortcomings that should now look evened out for the most part are still too apparent. Yet, he's still young, it's only preseason games and his contract kind of secures a spot for him in this make or break season.
    If he does not show leapfrog improvement by next srping, there's Reinbacher and Konyushkov getting ready to show him the door, the latter who I envision might be brought in before the end of his current KHL contract (which would help for Guhle to go back to his favored side)

  8. Also fully Agree with you Dekes on the Centers situation, Dvorak is finally healthy to start the season (crossing fingers no hinderance come up), already looking better in this one against true NHL defense than in the "dust the rust off" game against the Devils B team, which is very positive. That 3rd line with Roy and Anderson or Armia should already be an improvement from last seasons.
    The team will then let Beck grow some more in the AHL on a top line without rushing things out and Kapanen will get to play first line & PP minutes with Timra in this very good SHL on a run for the SHL playoffs. It's all for the better long term.

  9. Barron scored the same amount of points as Hutson….just saying. You can skate around all you want, unless you're putting up points, there is no difference.
    More love for Tuch please! 😉

  12. I wouldnt be so dissappointed if he was not a 5th overall pick but reinbacher has frustrated me this preseason. He is gonna need alot of time in laval. On the brightside i was impressed with Kidneys skating although i see him as a top line career ahler. I actuay prefer Dobes over Primeau.

  15. Granted , our D corp is overloaded, that's why they play preseason games, way way to soon to put a stamp on this team, this will carry thru for @ least the 10 game mark. More patience everyone!

  16. We love u Drew

    Your personality and energy

    suggestion… i know its tough but you need to do your videos on a constant basis and 30 min the minimum

    find a good partner to help u out

    maybe the partner could just write you all the main things to say… the script

    and u perform with flexibility

  21. It was basically the Laval Rocket vs Maple Leafs…first time a lot of these young guys playing in true NHL setting…maybe the next time they have some more confidence and do better….as much as I want engstrom, kapanen, etc to make the team they aren't quite ready yet. Hutson and Dobes were the only guys who put on a show.
